Using ODMAP to Guide Response to the Opioid Epidemic

Overview
Contents (4)

The Overdose Detection Mapping Application Program (ODMAP) is a web-based tool developed and supported by the Washington/Baltimore HIDTA to provide real-time suspected overdose surveillance data across jurisdictions to support the critical fight against opioid overdoses. In this webinar, instructors demonstrate the value of ODMAP and describe how two jurisdictions are using this free tool to identify overdose “hot spots” and trends of concern, and develop coordinated public safety, public health, and behavioral health intervention strategies.

Target Audience: Law enforcement personnel and public health, behavioral health, and treatment practitioners.

Overall Objectives: To explain the history and functionality of ODMAP, including how officers can enter data from the field and how agencies can access those data; enumerate the strategic and tactical applications of real-time overdose data from across jurisdictions; and demonstrate ways that law enforcement and their public health partners can use ODMAP to develop local and regional strategies for responding to and addressing opioid use disorder in their communities.

Project Funding Provided By: The Bureau of Justice Assistance, Office of Justice Programs, U.S. Department of Justice through their Comprehensive Opioid, Stimulant, and Substance Abuse Program (COSSAP)

Includes: A webinar in which W/B HIDTA personnel and law enforcement officers demonstrate how ODMAP is used in the field for submitting real-time overdose data, how agencies access and use the data, and how those data can be shared with public health officials to respond to opioid use in their jurisdictions.

Open to view video. The Overdose Detection Mapping Application Program (ODMAP), a web-based tool developed and supported by the Washington/Baltimore High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (W/B HIDTA), provides real-time suspected overdose surveillance data across jurisdictions to support public health and safety response efforts. In this webinar, W/B HIDTA staff will provide an overview of both the history and functionality of ODMAP. Nick Roti, Executive Director of the Chicago HIDTA and former Chief of the Organized Crime Unit for the Chicago Police Department, will discuss how ODMAP is transforming overdose reporting for the City of Chicago. Lt. Tim Kehoe will discuss how Chesterfield County, Virginia implemented ODMAP in the summer of 2018, and has since advanced its application to include working directly with the County’s Mental Health Support Services to utilize the data for outreach and prevention. Lt. Jason Piotrowski, of the New Jersey State Police (NJSP), will describe how NJSP on-boarded nearly 600 law enforcement agencies to submit data to ODMAP and how the near real-time data has strengthened intelligence, data-sharing, and coordination with local health departments.
